KTRE is constantly updating its FirstAlert 9 Weather app for mobile device users to monitor the "Weather Where You Live."

The First Alert 9 Weather app offers interactive radar, forecasts, alerts and much more to help you plan your day and to be on alert for severe weather. If you need to know what the weather will be like as you head out the door, an hour-by-hour forecast will pinpoint conditions for your specific location.

This high-tech weather app also includes daily video forecasts, push alerts for severe weather warnings, and it allows users to submit photos and video.

Also, don't worry about getting severe weather alerts for a distant county. You'll only be notified when weather threatens your town. A 10-day forecast will help keep you ahead of any weather system.

You can track storms on the new app all the way down to street-level. It's a great resource for day-to-day use, or take with you on vacation to get forecasts anywhere in the world.
